The Cheshire Ring

One of the ‘must do’ tours for anyone serious about boating. It takes between 10 and 14 days. The cruising time will be around 60 hours and will include a mere 108 locks! The journey will include cruising on 6 canals namely:- the Trent and Mersey canal, the Macclesfield canal, the Peak Forest canal, the Ashton canal, the Rochdale canal and, finally, the Bridgewater canal. From the countryside of the Cheshire Plain to the hills of the Peak District and the industrial landscapes of Stoke on Trent, Marple, Ashton under Lyme and Manchester, there really is something of interest for everyone.
